Book Synopsis Golf for Enlightenment by : Deepak Chopra, M.D.
Download or read book Golf for Enlightenment written by Deepak Chopra, M.D. and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2003-03-04 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deepak Chopra has discovered the delights—and frustrations—of golf, and he is passionate about the game. Confronted by the wild ups and downs of his own play, he consulted with golf professionals and developed a new approach to the game that any golfer can follow—from the novice to the expert. The results can be measured not only in increased enjoyment and skill, but also in greater wisdom about life beyond the 18th hole. Chopra’s own game has improved dramatically since incorporating the elements of his program. Instead of focusing on the mechanics of a “perfect” swing, Chopra reveals how golf can be mastered through mindfulness, a form of awareness that combines sharp focus and relaxation at the same time. Expanded awareness, he tells us, can accomplish much more than external mechanics to improve one’s game. But Golf for Enlightenment is also an engrossing story about Adam, an Everyman who is playing a terrible round of golf when he meets a mysterious young teaching pro named Leela. In seven short but profound lessons detailing spiritual strategies, she teaches Adam the essence of a game that has much to explain about life itself. Chopra has spent the last year taking the unique message in Golf for Enlightenment nationwide, teaching the essential tenets of his program at lectures and seminars to golfers everywhere. His message continues to help players turn an obsession into a positive life path.

Download or read book Golf written by Doug Hannaford and published by . This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This innovative book is a unique breakthrough for every golfer who wants to get on with serious improvements to their game. Doug Hannaford has distilled almost forty years of study of the game into just 30 absolute fundamentals which he calls objectives, most of which you can begin to embrace between visits to the golf course.This book is for every golfer from the absolute beginner to the accomplished tournament player because of the way Doug presents his findings on technique, on-course strategy and mental composure.For the beginner it cuts through the daunting maze of discussion on ball striking to present just four objectives to achieve a correct setup and five objectives to build a repeating swing. Likewise, he breaks the short game down into just three putting objectives and four short game objectives.If this seems simplistic, that is the intention completely, because Doug believes that the game of golf is largely psychological and he prepares you to think like an accomplished golfer. This is where the book offers something for even the best player, as it presents five clear mental objectives to help you develop consistency.Golf: The New Fundamentals also addresses the fundamentals of good strategy on the course, by helping you recognise your own strengths and weaknesses, then marries them up with a fascinating study of the design concepts of the game's most influential course architects. His recounting of influential aspects of their personal lives is worth a read alone!Doug closes with some mental discipline skills taken from other walks of life, to help you achieve a calm state and maintain it in the heat of battle. With such a broad yet logical coverage of all the best thinking in golf, this could be a life changing book - for golf and life.
